LAND OF MY SKULL

Broken dreams
Countless screams
Battered wives
Lost lives
Our leader`s impunity and corruption
Our betrayed revolution
Our forgotten freedom fighters
Our persecuted great writers
Your struggles
Your hope and expectations
Your troubles
Your sacrifice and persecution
Calls me back
To the murky waters
Full of dejected voters
My broken spirit
My vision of revolution
My mission of emancipation
My heart
Calls me back
To the land of my skull
